Looks like officials were on the 6 horse - Went official a second after the photo - and won by a nose..

Obvious contact and leaning in on the straight by the eventual winner, even the commentator mentioned it.

The didn't fancy a stewards.......

Was expecting a potential objection there too but looking at the head-on replay there was bumping from both horses.

In the States most tracks have outriders positioned just after the finish line and jockeys will call out to them as they pass to 'hold' the result if they want to raise an objection. The outriders then call this into the Stewards on their radios. Therefore if there is no 'hold' call the stewards can make the race official very quickly.

Yes but he's not going to yell hold until he knows the reult of the race........
